Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 285: Post-match public opinion storm, give you two a nest (no game, don't subscribe if you mind)

“The game is over. Although there were only three goals in total, the intensity of the game was beyond imagination and the excitement was beyond my expectation!”

"I saw someone in the comments section saying that Xiaochu's performance gets better towards the end of the season, and his performance today proved it."

"He not only suppressed Barcelona's defense throughout the game and scored two difficult goals, but also created many opportunities for his teammates."

"I think Barcelona will continue to target Chu in the second leg, but Lenglet was suspended due to a red card, so Umtiti is the only substitute central defender left."

"The Frenchman just recovered from injury not long ago and his competitive level is still in a relatively low state. It is very difficult to restrict Xiaochu. Valverde is expected to start from the midfield."

Zhan Jun briefly reviewed the game.

Although it is not advisable to open champagne in advance, Manchester United's probability of advancing is indeed high, and two valuable away goals will have a great impact on the situation.

At this moment, the atmosphere at Camp Nou was inexplicably frozen.

Barcelona fans thought of Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored 12 goals at Camp Nou, the player who scored the most goals at Barcelona's home stadium.

But the 12 goals were scored over a period of 11 years.

The young man who inherited the No. 7 jersey of Manchester United scored two goals in just one game. How many goals could he have scored if he was given 11 years?

Barcelona fans dare not think about it.

Moreover, they had heard rumors before that Florentino was willing to spend a lot of money to sign Chu Feng.

If he really joins Real Madrid, Barcelona fans will shudder.

Barcelona finally got over the period of weakness and started to win La Liga titles consecutively, and was preparing to emulate Bayern and win six consecutive championships.

Recalling Chu Feng's performance in this game, he made Pique and Lenglet look like a sieve, and the suppression was to a level visible to the naked eye.

Feel more powerful than Ronaldo?

If combined with Real Madrid's ceremonial three midfielders, the energy that erupts is truly terrifying.

Chu Feng had no idea that Barcelona fans were thinking so much. He and his teammates were expressing their gratitude to the Manchester United fans who had come from afar.

"Arrogant Spanish bastard, can you still laugh now?"

"Returning to Old Trafford will be your nightmare!"

"Well done, Red Devil boys!"

"."

Manchester United fans cheered excitedly and felt that the trip was worthwhile.

Around 10 years ago, Manchester United lost to Barcelona for several consecutive years, and the Red Devils fans had long been unhappy, but that Dream Team III was so strong that they even felt despair.

Now the shame has finally been paid back.

The score of 1:2 just doesn’t seem good enough. If they could get some Wu Ren, Up or Lafite, they would be more satisfied.

"Chu, the next round will be in six days. Time is so tight. Do you need to rest?"

Lukaku's big black face was full of anticipation.

He has made only a handful of appearances this season and doesn't want to be on the bench at the end of the season.

But Chu Feng was as tough as an animal. Not to mention any injuries, even fatigue was hard to see.

"I probably won't play in the league three days later. I will definitely be able to recover to my best condition in the second round."

Chu Feng shrugged.

Lukaku has fallen to his current situation, mostly due to his own actions. He insisted on gaining muscle and improving his confrontation ability during the World Cup, and when he returned to the Premier League, he was not able to adapt to the environment and was relegated to the bench.

Mourinho had no choice but to let Chu Feng play as center forward.

Hey, don't say that.

I don't know how much better he is than Lukaku.

He can break through, carry the ball, set up the defense, organize and pass the ball. He can switch positions freely according to tactics. He can be said to be Mourinho's dream striker.

As a result, after Lukaku worked hard to lose weight, he found out to his great sorrow that he had lost his position.

What can we do? We can’t let Chu Feng take the initiative to play as a winger, right?
"Ok."

Lukaku's tone was full of loss.

not far away.

Pique listened to the booing of Barcelona fans and thought that this group of people was really difficult to please.

No wonder according to statistics from various media, the most difficult fan groups in the world are Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United.

Because they all feel that they are all powerful clubs and are destined to play more beautiful and exciting games.

Manchester United fans Moyes, Giggs and Van Gaal came back to reality and lowered their requirements to just winning the game.

But recently, as Manchester United's performance has been getting better and better, they have gradually returned to their former demanding appearance.

After Chu Feng led the team to express his gratitude, he was taken away by the staff.

"Congratulations on winning the MVP of this game. Is there anything you want to say to everyone?"

The staff handed over a trophy.

"Well, Barcelona is a very strong opponent. The game was more difficult than I thought, but fortunately we won in the end."

Chu Feng did not turn on the sarcasm mode.

If the opponent was Atletico Madrid, he might do that, but Barcelona is just an opponent for him, no different from Real Madrid, Manchester City, etc.

There is no need to say anything exaggerated.

"Do you think there are any shortcomings in Barcelona?"

The reporter continued to ask questions.

Chu Feng smiled helplessly: "Let's talk about our shortcomings. First of all, the defensive system on the right is not perfect enough, otherwise I think Barcelona's goal could have been avoided. Secondly, the limitations on the offensive end. In modern football, full-backs are very important and it is impossible for them to be separated from the team's offense."

Left side: Ashley Young has limited physical strength now, and often cannot come back after going up; Luke Shaw's explosiveness decreases due to his short legs, and he lacks the most important foundation for assists.

Right side: Valencia is also too old; Wan-Bissaka has focused all his skills on defense, basically squatting in the backcourt to defend.

Currently.

Manchester United relied on their own, Pogba and Mahrez's personal abilities to barely support the offensive system in the midfield and frontcourt, but this can only be a temporary solution and is ultimately not a long-term solution.

Chu Feng discovered this problem before the winter transfer window and even sought out Mourinho to discuss it seriously.

It’s just that Manchester United’s funds are all used to buy Kante.

"Very good analysis, last question, Messi or Ronaldo?"

reporter asked.

See you at the picture?

Chu Feng had been asked a similar question before, and at that time he chose to refuse to answer.

Now he has changed his mind.

He said to the camera half-jokingly and half-seriously: "I don't think they should be compared. If I have to choose, I'll choose myself."

After saying that, he left with the trophy, leaving the staff in shock.
After entering the player tunnel, Ashley Young smiled and said: "Believe it or not, in half an hour, your words will be spread and criticized by countless fans."

"Countless?" Chu Feng curled his lips.

Does a young player’s idol have to be Messi or Ronaldo?
He really didn't want to get involved in the evaluation of the two people, as for why he should be chosen.

Because of ambition.

That rivalry defined an era, and that era should be coming to an end.

"Besides, if we really want to compare the number of fans, Cristiano Ronaldo has over 5 million followers on his social media accounts. You can check out mine when you have time."

Chu Feng was not panicked at all.

"It's true." Ashley Yang smacked his lips.

Ever since Chu Feng became famous, many Chinese people can be seen in every home game of Manchester United.

According to the current situation, even if all the Manchester United players are added together, they still don’t have as many fans as Chu Feng.

Suddenly the entrance to the player tunnel became chaotic.

It turned out that someone in the stands took out a portrait of Ronaldo and kept verbally provoking Messi.

"I'll give you two nests, I'll give you two nests!"

Messi was already in a bad mood, and became even more upset after seeing this, so he directly retorted back.

Chu Feng stopped and watched for a while, then returned to the locker room with a smile.

really don't say
This sentence is quite interesting and easy to say.

"Give you two a nest."

Listening to Chu Feng talking to himself, Maguire asked in confusion: "Chu, what does this sentence mean? Why do you keep repeating it?"

"Well Harry, let me make it clear that I'm not talking about you. This sentence means 'What are you looking at, idiot? Get out of here right now'."

Chu Feng gave a shot of prevention.

"Really? Why do I feel like you're talking about me?"

Maguire looked suspicious.

The Manchester United players in the locker room laughed when they saw this scene, and Chu Feng was also helpless.

Maguire obviously has such a big head, why does he act so stupidly?

Post-match news interview scene.

Valverde faced the reporters and stated in a firm tone:
“Our performance today was not good, but it does not mean we have lost hope of advancing.”

"On the contrary, I have full confidence in it."

"Because we have Messi."

"Messi made me suffer a lot when we were opponents before. I know how hurtful it is. Now I can finally enjoy everything Messi brings me."

"In the second round, he will lead Barcelona to continue!"
-
After the game.

Since the next game was still three days away, Chu Feng and the others were not in a hurry to go back, so they went shopping under the leadership of De Gea.

Barcelona has a rich nightlife.

For example, the red light district.

Although it is not as world-famous as Amsterdam, that is largely due to publicity.

With beautiful Mediterranean coastal scenery and historical sites full of cultural atmosphere, this is a fantasy city full of personality and charm.

Of course, Manchester United's team is mostly made up of good men, and everyone refused to go to the red-light district.

Including Pogba.

Apart from perming his hair, he doesn't touch pornography, gambling or drugs.

Everyone just walked around the city center and returned to the hotel early to rest.

While they are sleeping, the game is getting really hot!
Some time ago, the media selected five rising stars who have the potential to replace Messi and Ronaldo.

Mbappe, Neymar, Salah, Hazard and Chu Feng.

After a season and a half, it's clear who has the best chance.

"Barcelona 1:2 Manchester United, Chu scored twice and was named the best player. So far, he has defeated Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​does it mean the end of the old era? - The Guardian"

"Huaxia player Chu thinks he is the best in the world, but I think young people should be more pragmatic and say this after winning more honors!"

"Changes in odds for this year's Ballon d'Or, Chu surpasses Messi to become first!"

"Since Real Madrid fell into a slump, La Liga's competitiveness has declined. Barcelona's performance tonight perfectly illustrates this point!"

"Messi was angered by Ronaldo's fans after the game!"

"Barcelona's 30-match unbeaten streak at home in the Champions League, with an astonishing record of 27 wins and 3 draws, was broken tonight by the Red Devils Manchester United!"

"."

Many media outlets have published corresponding reports, many of which contain rational analysis, while others contain many that are quoted out of context.

Naturally, it aroused heated discussion among fans.
-
[Valverde’s role is not to formulate tactics, he only needs to praise Messi after the game! ]
-
[Haha, being able to brag so extraordinary is a skill. ]
-
[By the way, the longest unbeaten record at home in the Champions League, the last time Barcelona lost, should be traced back to Bayern in 2013, right? ]
-
[Yes, and their statistics are terrifying, with a total of 93 goals, an average of 3.1 goals per game.]
-
[Why does it seem like Xiao Chu is breaking more and more records? ]
-
[Xiao Chu: Please call me Record Crusher! ]
-
[Manchester United also has an unbeaten record against Barcelona at home. I wonder if it will be broken in six days? ]
-
[Xiao Chu: Please call me the Record Keeper! ]

Most fans still can't accept that Barcelona lost so easily and Messi didn't have a very eye-catching performance.

This brings us to an old story.

In 2006, Mourinho, then Chelsea head coach, gave ways to limit Messi in a scout report, which also included analysis and evaluation of Barcelona tactics, Ronaldinho, Puyol and others.

The evaluation of Messi is: "Use more fouls to limit him. Note that it is very important to foul outside the penalty area, and the sooner the better."

Sure, it sounds simple.

But to achieve this requires stronger pressing aggressiveness and higher level of tacit understanding in assisting defense. Didn’t you see how exhausted Professor Yang and Herrera are?

There is another interesting sentence.

"Pay attention to the pressure that Barcelona players put on the referee on the field, and your own players should also put reasonable pressure on the referee."

Now 13 years have passed, Messi has become much stronger and his technical characteristics have also changed.

Mourinho made more detailed reports and more in-depth targeted tactics, such as high pressure to cut off Messi's connection with his teammates.

So, what seems impossible in the eyes of the majority of fans is actually created by countless details.

Then the fans turned their attention and started talking about the Ballon d'Or again.
-
[If Messi can win the America's Cup, I think he can win the Ballon d'Or even if he doesn't win the Champions League, plus the league.]
-
[Indeed, the America's Cup still has value. ]
-
[Well, I looked at the America's Cup schedule in recent years. It was held in 15, 16, and 19. I heard that it will be held in 20 as well. Isn't that a bit "willful"? ]
-
[Your hint is no different from saying it directly. The America's Cup will be held until Messi wins the championship.]
-
[So the value of the America's Cup is definitely not as good as the European Cup. ]
-
[It's different. If Argentina can win the championship, this will be Messi's first championship with the national team, filling his championship drought with the national team. The possibility of winning the Ballon d'Or is very high! ]
-
[So you mean Xiaochu can't win the European Super Cup, Club World Cup, Champions League, League, and League Cup? ]
-
[It is possible. 】
-
[Don't talk nonsense. The organizers of the Ballon d'Or should still have some dignity. If the five-time champion can't win the Ballon d'Or, then there is no need to hold it in the future.]

While netizens were hotly discussing, Carrington training base.

Manchester United players had just finished their training and were chatting on the sidelines of the football field. Mahrez made a joke: "Chu, there have been a lot of topics about you recently. Did the club buy traffic again?"

"That's for sure. I guess Mendes bought a lot too." Chu Feng yawned.

He doesn't pay attention to this matter. No matter how the outside public opinion ferments, he just needs to do what he should do.

This little episode passed quickly and it was April 4th.

The 34th round of the Premier League kicks off!
Manchester United vs West Ham United at home!
